I would love to see ey back over Niles Paul.. I get that they are at different points in their careers with ey clearly on the back end and likely not able to contribute on special teams ( which clearly shows why he will most likely NOT be back ) BUT...

I just dont get what they see in Paul.. I dont see the value in him and from a fans view point would love to see ey back for one more year

I don't think any of us truly know. Some will have supiscions or gut feelings... I say it's one or two things going on with Chris ey. He's either A. Fallen off, or B. His body is failing him and he's simply not the best player anywhere on the depth chart.

Mike Plays the best player at the position and ey isn't that player anymore. He's our 3rd best option at the TE position.

Yes, I think it's a sad reflection on ey's diminished abilities/physical condition that the Redskins seem to think that Niles Paul represents an improvement over him. I have my doubts that Paul himself will be around for very long though.

It happens to every player at some time in their career. We wasted his best years...

I find it hard to believe that ey has nothing left IF healthy.. I imagine he is pretty healthy all things considered.. but of course I am not him and or a team doctor to determine that.. I think I just wear ey tinted shades as he was and will always be one of my favorite Redskins so I would love to see him end his career on top playing like one of the best TE in football but I also understand that is not the case sadly

ey fan here - the reality is that, as some have pointed out, the players that give the coaches the best group on the field will get the call ..

it's time to look at all he's done DESPITE not being surrounded with players that gave the offense the best chance for success

THANKS Chris ey - it was fun

P A T I E N C E - The Redskins will improve the product on the field if Dan Snyder just let's Scott & his FO do their jobs Dan needs to stop screwing things up and let Scott get this franchise back together

I think ey waits around this year again in case we get a season-ending injury to a TE. But other than that, I'd expect he's done. I'd be surprised if he's even in training camp.

"I’m never under the assumption that you draft for need. You draft the best available football player on the board. ... Because, in the long run, they are the ones who will help you win the most games." - Scot McCloughan

To those who think CC has something left in the tank... keeping in mind that I am a huge fan...

Did none of you watch him run last year? The man was horribly hobbled... he has a serious hitch in his giddyup... it was apparent even when walking. I was broken-hearted watching him. He has nothing left to give.

This is one of those times that I'd be delighted to be wrong... but I just don't see it.
